Absorption probability in contracting spheroids as function of compression Z> 1 calculated by Monte Carlo simulation. At Z = 1 all cases are spherical. The photons start either at the centre only or anywhere inside the ellipsoid in random directions. Different cases are represented where the initial sphere optical depth τ0 is indicated.
